Count Always your blessings...


Poem Artwork

 

 

 

 

 

 

Evening shadows wrap around him

Offer a dark cloak of disguise

The stigmata of his longing heart

Lurk behind his blue unblinking eyes

 

He walks the path often yearning

For the life that could never be

Then he stops to count his blessings

Beneath the sorrowed willow tree

 

His mind says to be grateful

For all the love he has to hold

but heart and mind don’t always sync

Especially when the night turns cold

 

Pulls his collar up against the wind

Sings a sad George Jones country song

Remembers her sweet smile and her promise

Little things that keep love strong…

"He Stopped Loving Her Today..." Sung by George, is the most played country song ever and seems to be real appropriate here. Dick

It's the little things that count. And this little poem says a lot. I'm listening to a George Jones song in my mind as I write this.
